EDISON, N.J., March 13, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Catalyst Development Partners, LLC, a leading real estate development firm specializing in revitalizing underutilized industrial and brownfield sites, has received final approval from the Edison Township Planning Board for the redevelopment of 135 Whitman Avenue. The approved plan includes the construction of two modern warehouse facilities with office spaces, marking a significant step toward transforming the formerly contaminated site into a productive economic asset.
The project, proposed by Catalyst's affiliate 135 Whitman Renewal, LLC, will redevelop a 6.71-acre property in the L-I Light Industrial Zone. The approved site plan includes a 50,400-square-foot warehouse with office space and a second, 10,125-square-foot warehouse, both designed to accommodate industrial and distribution uses. The project aligns with Edison's Master Plan and will feature extensive landscaping, lighting, and infrastructure improvements.
"We are excited to move forward with the redevelopment of 135 Whitman Avenue, a project that aligns with our mission of transforming underutilized properties into thriving industrial assets," said Mike McMullen, Managing Principal of Catalyst Development Partners. "This approval paves the way for economic growth and job creation while ensuring environmental responsibility."
The property underwent significant environmental remediation under the oversight of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), culminating in a Response Action Outcome (RAO) issued in December 2024. This confirms that the site has been remediated in compliance with state environmental regulations, allowing for safe redevelopment.
As part of the project, Catalyst Development Partners has committed to maintaining access to the adjacent Edison dog park through an easement agreement and implementing traffic management measures to minimize local impact.
With approvals in place, Catalyst Development Partners anticipates breaking ground on the project later this year, with completion targeted for late 2025.
